The 2.4 liter four cylinder engine in a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am has a timing CHAIN
Replacing the timing chain on a 2010 Malibu with a 2.4-liter engine involves several steps. First, disconnect the battery and remove components obstructing access to the timing chain cover, such as the intake manifold and engine mount. After draining the engine oil and coolant, remove the timing chain cover to access the timing chain and sprockets. Align the timing marks, remove the old chain and sprockets, and install the new timing chain, ensuring everything is properly timed before reassembling the engine.
Depends on what year it is and which engine it has. If it has a pushrod engine in it, it has a timing chain instead of a belt. If it is an overhead cam engine, then it does. Keep in mind that the Malibu was originally a Chevelle model starting in 1964. The Malibu replaced the Chevelle in 1978, so there are a lot of possibilities here.

What exactly are you trying to do? Timing is controlled by the computer. Timing marks are on the timing chain gears. I own a 1998 Malibu JJ
